Default tow hooks on a 2nd gen.

Who has tow hooks or hook on the front of your 2 nd gen. I would like to bolt some on but can't find anywhere to do it and have it look good . most of the one's I have seen were welded on and look like crap. if you have pics of yours please add them

The second gens didn't come with them from the factory. I've been wanting to fabricate some on mine as well. Send like there's some stuff in the way though. Might have to do some cutting and grinding to get them to fit

I guess I'll will have to try to make a cardboard mockup and see if any of the welding shops thing they can come up with something. looks like it will have to be some plate steel cut to an L shape to come below the bumper and then bolt some hooks on it. I was hoping some one had already done it . so I would have a better idea on how to do it .

I think mopar sells a kit for them to be added. If not them, there is a few companies that sell as well.
